Monotremes

I have recently learned that monotremes, a group of living mammals, do not have vaginas. I wonder then why the article should read, "In mammals," as opposed to "In most mammals,". UserTwoSix (talk) 20:52, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You were probably learning about male monotremes. I'm sure if you examined some female monotremes, you will find that they have vaginas. 199.120.30.210 (talk) 20:00, 9 April 2022 (DUI) (UTC)

@199.120.30.210:, no in fact, you wouldn't. Monotremes, unlike therians, have retained crown-group mammal structures, and thus have cloacas. 142.157.228.3 (talk) 20:45, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Bonus hole

I just learned that to avoid offending trans people some people want to start calling the vagina a "bonus hole". Is this really true?? Georgia guy (talk) 14:51, 10 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Some trans men use the term for their own genitals. See relevant content at Transgender sexuality. I am not aware of any effort, by trans men or otherwise, to replace the general term vagina. -- Tamzin^{[cetacean needed]} (she|they|xe) 07:25, 11 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
